Descriptions
Ruby through 2.4.7, 2.5.x through 2.5.6, and 2.6.x through 2.6.4 mishandles path checking within File.fnmatch functions.
Ruby versiones hasta 2.4.7, versiones 2.5.x hasta 2.5.6 y versiones 2.6.x hasta 2.6.4, maneja inapropiadamente la comprobación de ruta dentro de las funciones File.fnmatch.
A flaw was discovered in Ruby in the way certain functions handled strings containing NULL bytes. Specifically, the built-in methods File.fnmatch and its alias File.fnmatch? did not properly handle path patterns containing the NULL byte. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw to make a Ruby script access unexpected files and to bypass intended file system access restrictions.
